LOUISVILLE, April 25.-The brutal
assailant of Jennie Bowman, a white
| domestic, who was so horribly and
fatally beaten up by a burglar In
broad daylight last Thursday, has
been captured. The arrest was made
last night, and the guilt OF the mar
| was surely established by his W
confession. The police authorities
| withheld the news from the papers
until 10 o'clock this morning, when
they had taken the miscreant. who is
| a black negro, named Albert Turner,
| to Frankfort, fearing that he would be
lynched here. Had the details of the
capture become public last night the
negro would almost certainly have
been hanged by the mob before morn
ing, SO incensed are the people at the
outrage. 1t will be remembered that
the man entered the house, located in
the fashionable residence portion OF
the city between IL and IL o'clock in
the morning, living first observed that
all of the inmates had left. While he
was ~ransacking the place the girl re-
turned, and pluckily fought him, CIV
ing him several severe gashes in the
face with a tumbler. The brute
knocked her { own, crushing in her
skull with a brass poker, and other
wise disigur1ng ner, and then made
his escape.
The revolving details OF the confess
sion of the negro Albert Turner, IN
the case oil the girl Jennie Bowman,
who was so brutally assaulted by the
negro burglar at midday last Thurs
day, has aroused the indignation OF
the community to a degree unparal-
leled almost in its history. Turner's
confession duplicates another negro
named Patterson, who has been ar
rested ON suspicion, and the authori-
ties have taken him to Frankfort, in
order to escape the mob. So terribly
incensed are the people that there is
danger of the mob proceeding to
Frankfort and lynching them there.
When Turner identified Patterson at
the Frankfort prison last night, the
latter made a spring at his throat and
endeavored to choke him to death. 1t
took five or six men to part the
negroes. The proof against them is
overwhelming and conclusive.

New York, April 25.-The Oyer and
Terminer courtroom was crowded this
morning with people, assembled to
